Before facing Arnaldi, Tsitsipas wants to remain vigilant: "I know exactly what type of player he is"

Stefanos Tsitsipas is having a very impressive tournament at Roland-Garros. After winning the title in Monte Carlo, the Greek is one of the main outsiders for the title. After three excellent opening matches, the world number 9 enters the Round of 16 with a very high level of confidence.
To reach the quarter-finals of this year's French Open, he'll have to face one of the tournament's great sensations: Matteo Analdi, ranked 35th and Rublev's stunning winner (7-6, 6-2, 6-4). Although a clear favorite on paper, Tsitsipas is determined to remain cautious.

When asked about his opponent, he knows what to expect, which is why he's expecting a big match: "I know exactly what type of player he is, because I've seen him play in Barcelona, I've seen him play abroad, I've seen him play in Rome, I've seen him play here. I've been keeping an eye on him for the last six months, I'd say, when he really started to make an impact, when he really started to make appearances on the ATP Tour.

He's someone who gets on the court to win and fights long and hard. He never gives up. I've noticed that about him. He's an excellent fighter. When it comes to fighting, he fights and doesn't give up. So he'll fight and he won't give up. That's something I'm waiting for."
